HELP!

2/14 I noticed a lot of anal itching. I woke up in the middle of the night with severe itching. I didn’t think much of it. I recently treated myself twice for a yeast infection. I googled Pinworm and I have all of the symptoms. Last week I took otc Reese’s Pinworm, cleaned everything, practiced perfect hygiene, used coconut oil and still have constant itching even throughout the day. I called the doctor and she wants me to go give a stool sample. Today I looked at my vagina and I noticed some small white specks. Then I noticed an actual worm. I completely freaked out and I do not know what to do. Someone please give some advice! I’m so disgusted.

    Lora,

    Don't worry! It is natural, and happens to everyone at some point. Just make sure to wash your hands, threat everyone in your house, and wash all clothes and bedding you have come into contact with. Make sure everyone in your house is hygienic, and wash everyone's clothes and bedding to destroy eggs (if they lay them, not sure).

    Good luck, and tell me what happens!

    Best wishes,

    Freakout
